Jump!

Jumped over my first hurdle at work today.

Had a joint-presentation with a fellow newbie teammate on a topic chosen by the boss. I'd been to a previous presentation by another team member and it had seemed laid-back enough. Boy, was i in for a shock. Since ours was attended by the HOD and all the other bosses, it was a lot more intimidating. I guess i did my best, considering the circumstances. Boss asks tough questions but she seems like a fair person. And she's like a wealth of info, just from the top of her head. What a woman. I'm kind of in awe.

Received good feedback from everyone and hear back from one of the managers that the boss was happy with it as well. Phew. Who knew a presentation could be intense? But then again, all presentations are a bit difficult for me since public speaking is not my forte. It seems like the new job demands a lot of it though. Guess i gotta adapt fast.

So all in all, it wasn't a bad day. I say that because my tummy still feels queasy all day. This is getting to be really exhausting.
